Your thoughts???

You called a block when there was no contact? The Fed rules specifically state that the act to influence an official's decision is a technical foul. Feinting by the defense is exaclty that - trying to influence a decision by the officials. I'd talk to a player the first time it happened - then call a Technical foul after that. They'll stop damn quickly after that.
